PDMS (Polydimethylsiloxane) and nanoparticle laboratory

Our PDMS and nanoparticle laboratory enables researchers work with materials central to soft lithography and nanomaterials, underpinning research expected to dominate the area for at least 20 years.

As an ISO 5 Class 100 laboratory, the fabrication of novel devices using PDMS and its many polymer variants and the synthesis and integration of nano-scale particles and molecules is possible without risk of cross-contamination, either by external contaminants in the experiments conducted in this laboratory or by the PDMS and nanoparticles accidentally being carried into other parts of the facility.
